lucid

Breaking into an apartment

I was a regular male. I felt starring a movie character in a movie...thats why I had changes in point of view.
I was living in a small room of concrete apartment. it was technically not a room; it almost looked like refuge of some kind of Holocaust. the door that slides is made up of concrete also. I think it had a small window. since I'm a movie character, I think was a criminal or someone like that.
I had this superpower of flying, so I tried to leave the town. but I failed so I crushed on my room door. then I tried again, and eventually left the town. while I was flying I saw a small forest? and felt like that there was NY City near me....
then I found some apartments; thought the apartment town was in Sweden or other European country. just being curious (or the feeling I had similar to having lucid dream..this was semi-LD.), I wanted to break in a house in the apartment. so I jumped to the veranda and tried to get in the locked window. I even thought of transforming into a small insect to get in! but when I just looked closely to the window I somehow got into the house. lol
at this moment my point of view was split into 3rd person. this man, or I, was wearing a black criminal mask and suit. I was really a criminal. I opened a room door and there was 4-8 yrs young girl sleeping on the bed. then suddenly I was caught by her 'mom', and the girl caught me to, and they started to beat me. the 'dad' was still sleeping in the room, having a girl/ boy baby beside him, and the mom shouted 'wake up honey!!! you gotta help me!!!' I think the dad slowly woke up.

Time Travel to 80's

(finally I was 'me') I was flying with someone(felt like my teacher?) over the apartments. there was nothing but blue sky above the apartments so I got scared. I landed on the top of the building, and went down on the ground.
this dream felt like that it was in the 80's, maybe '85. suddenly I felt like I had a talent in music, then this old man came to me and said: "you're very talented. I will buy you a headphone." so I thought it must be really old and cheapy bc its 80s.... but the old man said, it's an American headphone.
I was chatting with people sitting in circle. I saw some Asians and Caucasians. this one man said to me:
"you should thank to that old man. that American headphone is like, what, 300,000 wons here(Koera) and maybe 600 dollar in america? you're so lucky!"
....so what? I thought. anyway on the left of me my friend who time traveld to 80s also was sitting next to me, and on the right there was a Native American or Indian woman. we sang the 80s beat song together, and I almost freaking throw up from its disgusting-old-song.

Art Class SpongeBob

I was in the art class at high school. I tried to do watercolor piece but I forgot to bring my watercolors so I was puzzled. so I tried to draw something another. these 2 students were playing computer game, and the substitue teacher yelled at them. idk why, I was playing Sonic game on ipad secretly.
then I threw ipad away and started to draw SpongeBob. my R was infront of me, saying "dude, you dont miss any detail from SpongeBob face. haha look at his eyelids!"
I was drawing 3 eyelids on SpongeBob's eyes. then I'm like "oh! I gotta draw his dimples lool" then I drew his sponge holes too.

My first Lucid dream! (:
i remeber that i was in this type of school hall way, and i remeber rubbing my hands alot so i didnt wake up or lose it.
Dream:
i was in this school hallway and there were zombies everywhere, upstairs, walking on the sides of me, and down the hall walking towards me. i just walked stright looking around but i felt a little bit scared, but i knew i was dreaming. i tried thinking of somthing else but nothing else came to mind at that exact moment. I dont remeber the rest but i wish i knew how to change what i was dreaming of.

So this dream had some really low low awareness spots that I will just count as a non-lucid


I remember this dream starting out in the truck with my mom and me. There was this gate thing and it was supposed to be a portal to terra nova. So my mom drove through and when we got to the other side there was just another part of town and my mom was lost. At this point I think I was lucid but at really low awareness. We ended up going back through the portal and then I asked if I could drive through because I am an oneironaut and I know how the dream world works. I got out of the car and started visualizing this portal, now the portal gate was this rectangular tall structure. So I visualized this gate and then the colors started swirling inside the gate. I leaped through and then slowly opened my eyes and saw these like hologram computer screens. So I guess I was in Terra Nova now.

Now I remember the other part of this dream, I can remember that it had a bit of stuff before this, but I don't want to go into that because I barely remember it. So I remember being in the truck with my brother as he drove away from our street and I said that it would be awesome if we were still dreaming (we had some lucid experiences earlier in the dream) So I did an RC and BAM I was lucid. I now remember being at an intersection in the car with my brother and I was saying that we should go to mars or something cool and he didn't really seem that interested. So I got out of the car and looked to my right and there was a kickass dirtbike there. I shouted, "Hell yeah!". So I ran up to it and thought that I wanted to fly this thing. So I pulled out of the parking lot and into the street, I tried slamming the throttle and leaning back but it didn't work! So I tried it again and still no luck! Then I put on like half throttle and imagined my dirtbike floating up into the sky. So then the dirtbike started lifting up and up and then I leaned back and pointed my nose toward the sky and slammed the throttle and flew through the air. I then got bored or something and jumped off the dirtbike and pulled my parachute close to the ground. ( Now just to mention that in this lucid dream I wasn't very aware and I just seemed to be going through the motions a bit.) Then I remember coming down and my brother being all happy and saying how cool that was.

Now the rest of this "lucid" was pretty stupid and I really don't have a lot of time so I wont DJ it for now.

Dream - Lucid

I felt myself moving into a dream. I wanted to sit up, but not until I knew for sure I was dreaming.

Everything was then very dark around me, like it was the dead of night. I saw a window in my room where it wasn't supposed to be. I kept saying in my head
"I'm dreaming, I'm dreaming."
I sat up, feeling no resistance, but then, I suddenly snapped back down like a rubber band.
Bummer.

I was in high school band again. I had my bass clarinet out, and I was playing it, just messing around a little. I was standing, then I was sitting in the band at some point. A girl I used to know, Cathy I think, was playing a tenor sax. She was just beginning to learn how to play it. I looked over at her. The tenor sax looked HUGE. I mean, those things are already pretty damn big, but this one was as wide as a tenor and as long as my bass clarinet.

I looked at my reed. I realized that this was the first time I had gotten my bass clarinet out since high school, and that I should have checked it out before just putting it together and playing it. Who knows what kinda gross shit was in there? I started to take it apart in the band room while talking to someone.

At some point, I talked to my old band teacher as well.

Dream skip.

I was about to see Chris again, for the first time in almost a year. Lots of things had changed; he was dating someone else and we hadn't really talked since January. I was really excited to see him.

Then, Chris was there. We were hanging out in an off-white room, I don't know where we were. I know everything was very clear and bright, like it was in the middle of the day. We were laughing and catching up, having a great time. I wanted so badly to tell him how much I had missed him, how much I wanted to spend more time with him. I wanted him to leave his girlfriend and come back to me, but I never said that. I couldn't bring myself to. Regardless, we did some hugging. It was nice.

Chris and I were then on a train. It was a strange train, as it ran on a single track that was raised up above the land, like a monorail. Below the tracks was green grass; we were in the country. The conductor wasn't there, so Chris had to drive the train. I was in there with him. The car was empty and colored grey steel. The only thing it had was a small steering wheel that looked like the steering wheel to a pirate ship, only smaller. I watched out the window as Chris drove the train. We took a curve and had a really close call; the train almost fell of the tracks, but Chris adjusted enough to fix it.

Then, I looked ahead on the tracks. There was a sharp curve coming up, and the track looked corroded. Chris did the best he could, but the train fell on its side and almost all the way off of the track. The right wall of the train fell out, and so did Chris. I rushed over as he was falling and grabbed his hand, saving him from falling to the ground some distance below. I had a rush of adrenaline as I did this, and felt the need to say something that had been bottling up the whole time we had been hanging out; the whole time we hadn't spoken or seen one another.
"I love you," I said.
He did not respond. What was I expecting?

I pulled him back up into the remnants of the train.

We were then suddenly on the ground below the rail. The ground was no longer grass, but a hard, greyish flooring was below our feet. An official-looking woman approached us. She had her blonde hair pulled back tight, and was wearing a suit.
"So far, 8 people were killed," she said, referring to the accident.
I stepped in and defended Chris, telling her that it wasn't his fault and the track had been corroded.

Then, we were back in that room we were in originally. In a way, it now reminded me of a kitchen. Chris got on the phone, a land line, and was talking to someone about how he would be in San Fransisco in a month. I then remembered that he was moving to Chile in a month (he is in waking life). I started to feel defeated. I couldn't believe I had forgotten that.

After a 4-5 year hiatus from trying to LD, I'm finally going back to my old methods, and trying to get better. This is the 2nd night, waking up after 6 hours and attempting MILD.

I'm laying in bed thinking about dreaming, what I should be doing for reality checks, and wondering if I'll be able to successfully LD again. I look at my hands and start counting my fingers (as I do during the day to reality test). I then notice I definitely went above 5 (I hope I can count, but let me try again). I hit 6, and it hits me pretty hard that I'm finally LDing again. I end up in a lagoon/marsh area, resembling a painting of a beach I have behind my bed, although I didn't jump through it. The colors are a vivid blend of red and amber, and there are people laying down next to the water. I decide to drag one into the water- I'm not really sure why. I continue down the marsh area a bit. The dream begins to fade though, and I soon wake up. A crazy chain of Lucid Dreams and False Awakenings and ensues, but I'll fill in the entry later today.

- An awesome 2nd day back!

This next segment was a string of roughly 3 Lucid dreams, all spaced out by real and false awakenings. My memory isn't exact though as I am writing this about a week after the fact. Anyway, I did not need to look for a dream sign; I was instantly lucid in my room. I kept trying to jump through my mirror since this technique used to work for getting into new dreamscapes. I constantly just banged into the mirror,however, but saw a pretty acurate reflection of myself. I decided to exit through the window. I woke up in real life, went back to bed, and the dream continued in a similar place. This time I flew into the backyard and landed on the first floor patio. The rest of the dream is a blur, although I do remember another awakening sometime during the course of it.

Task of the Year: Nightmare On Elm Street
I am in high school, walking down one of the hallways with lockers on both sides of the hall. I am looking for my own locker, and I can't remember where the locker is, but I know I am late heading to my next class. I am getting frustrated with finding my locker and feeling rather stupid… but finally I find it. Great… now I can't remember the combination. I take a hair pin from the floor and start trying to pick the lock to my own locker. It opens and I see my books on the bottom, and there is a kid that looks to be about 8 years old impaled on the coat hanger on the back of the locker. And he is still alive, he is weakly trying to get down, blood coming from his mouth in strangled gasps… A gloved hand explodes through the boy's chest, there are knives on the glove like in Nightmare On Elm Street. The boy's body is broken in half and pulled through a hole in the back of the locker. I look through the hole and see something on the other side, a figure that has some resemblance to Freddy Krueger, but is even uglier and more disgusting… he is eating the flesh off of the boy's arm. He looks up at me and snarls in a horrible grin. Thoughts of Freddy Krueger lead to thoughts of dream demons and thoughts of dreaming… I can fight this guy… this is my dream! I move closer to the hole in the locker and Freddy reaches through to grab hold of me. I grab his hand before he can stab me with the knives and I will not let go, I twist it in a martial arts move and flip him over. The glove comes off in my hands, he glares at me and the dream shifts.

I am now at what looks like a mining site of some kind, I am still holding Freddy Krueger's glove in my hands, but now I see that I am not alone. There are a couple of men there with me, they are getting really close and hot and heavy with each other. They are kissing very passionately and feeling each other up… then they see me and cool it a bit. One of them, a black guy, says the two of them are ready to come out of the closet. Where did Freddy Krueger go? I don't care if these guys are gay or not… I want to find that dream demon. Well, I don't have long to wait. The ground starts to rumble and shake and then a huge worm / snake thing with the face of Freddy Krueger erupts from the ground and bites on to the black guy.

The other guy, a white guy, screams no over and over again, jumping up and down in place like a scared little girl. I still have Freddy's glove… I use the glove and sink the knives into the neck of the worm thing, making it roar in anger and pain and spit the guy out. He is covered in brown goop but seems unharmed. The guy's boyfriend hugs him and now they are both covered in goop. I am focused more on Freddy. He is trying to maneuver around and bite me, but the knives of the glove are imbedded in the thing's neck and I am holding on to that. So his moving around succeeds only in cutting him deeper. I focus on the song Damage Inc. by Metallica to send fire energy right through the glove and into the worm creature. The thing erupts into flames from the inside out and is gone in a blaze of fire which somehow doesn't burn me. I look to see if the two men are alive and they are making love on the ground… naked… covered in goop… yuck… not something I want to see so I wake up.

Viral
I am in a strange underground cavern which I somehow know is located underneath MoSh's inner world, and things have gone very wrong there lately. I look around and see I am in what appears to be a central chamber with many smaller caves branching off to the sides in various directions. Data is suspended in the middle of the room by a vast array of colorful wires which seem to be connecting him to every corner of the cavern and beyond. I have the idea that all of these twisted wires and cables are connecting Data to every aspect of MoSh's inner world. But there is something wrong. Data does not look right, in fact he looks stark raving mad. His eyes have a flashing red glow to them, there is smoke rising from several of the places where the wires are connected to him, and he is laughing maniacally. He seems to not have noticed me. I move towards Data, wondering what is wrong, and he finally notices me and announces I have great timing and I am about to witness the birth of a new era, where all will be perfection and there will be no flaws. Wtf? Apparently Data has lost it… I ask him what he is talking about… he said everything that is flawed will be purged and replaced with pure perfection. I notice that he is also talking strange… "All in the-the-the world that is fla-a-awed will be pur-pur-ged and repla-ce-ce-ce-d with pure per-fect-fect-perfection!" Stuttering beyond belief. Maybe he has a virus? But there's no way he could have a virus… he has penticon CPUs… they don't get viruses, do they? Only one way to find out. I use the penticon processor I have implanted in my head to generate nanites. I send the nanites through one of the cables near me that is connected to Data. Apparently Data registered the intrusion at the last minute, he tries to block the nanites out by disconnecting many of the wires, but it's too late. The nanites are already inside. And there is a virus! The virus has programmed Data to see all biological living beings as flawed and thus must be eliminated, he apparently tried to eliminate Asuka… where is she now? Data doesn't know. That could be a good thing… the last Data saw she was ok at least. I direct the nanites to delete the virus from Data's programming and restore him to optimum operating conditions… and then stick around and act as an anti-virus for Data in the future.

Sweet Sacrifice
I am in a forest walking along a path that has been clearly marked out through the trees. The path looks heavily traveled, there are many footprints heading both directions. I follow the path for a short ways and find there is a small town at one end that looks like something out of a RPG fantasy game. I decide I want to see where the other direction of the path leads before talking to anyone in the village, so I turn and leave before anyone sees me. I hear someone over there is arguing… and I listen in… and it seems some woman is pissed off because she doesn't think her son should be the one to be sent to satisfy the demon… I follow the trail in the other direction, maybe I can see what is going on. The trail leads through a very pleasant forest, the sounds of the birds singing, the wind in the trees… someone screaming in agony… wait… not such a nice sound… I hurry along the path and find a shrine at the end of it. There is a woman there, she looks like a hooker… scantily dressed and appearing sexy, long black hair, unnaturally white skin, bright red lips…

and there is a young man chained to what appears to be an altar. He sees me arrive and can't seem to decide if he wants me to help him or run for my life. The woman has razor sharp finger nails and she uses one to cut a square of skin off the man's chest which she eats in the manner a seductress would eat a particularly tantalizing piece of chocolate. The man screams in pain, which she seems to enjoy as much as the food. She asks if I came to watch or if I want to join in. She laughed. She said leave or I would be dessert. I tell her that could never happen, she can't take me. She seems annoyed at the challenge… she says she hasn't had a fool villager challenge her for a long time, this will be fun. She attacks me, her finger nails grow into massive talons, apparently she thinks she will just rip me open. Epic fail. I form Witchblade into a sword and relieve her of her head. How pathetically weak for a demon… I set the prisoner free just before I wake up

EVE: Fox In The Hole

I am inside a game of EVE Online and I am flying a drake loaded down with heavy missile launchers. Furthermore, I am pissed off. I am pissed off at another player by the username of Foxtrot 02 for recently putting me in a very uncomfortable position involving secrets and backstabbing against the CEO of our online corporation… that gets too convoluted to get into here, suffice it to say I am out for blood. I am flying my drake from asteroid belt to asteroid belt in the solar system Kaaputenen which is where Fox usually hangs out. I finally find him in one of the asteroid belts in his retriever mining some pyro from a couple asteroids.

Normally I am not in favor of attacking an unarmed mining ship, but in this case I make an exception. I open fire on Fox's retriever with a barrage of missiles. He launches his drones, but the drones are barely launched before my missiles wipe his retriever from existence. Fox's pod is now floating in space. Boom! I blast the pod before he can warp away. In the chat window I see Fox is cursing fluently at me, I tell him that's what he gets for the position he put me in. He says I will pay for that and then goes silent. Shortly later Fox warps back into the asteroid belt, this time he is in a tengu…

which is an advanced battleship. Wait a minute… Fox can't fly a tengu! But there it is… While I am wondering how it is even possible he blows up my drake. I launch in my fire valkyrie instead of my pod, however. Now it is his turn to pull a "wtf" and have the hesitation prove fatal. I blast his tengu into debris. I then blast his pod. Ha! That's twice, Fox! I blasted you twice! Ship and pod both times! You should count yourself double podded!

Dream 1
I was in The Wire chilling with Chris Partlow for a drug delivery/ waiting to get picked upby Marlo. It was dark and there were 2 street lights as we stood in a corner waiting.



Dream 2

I was boarding a plane to Hawaii (sweet right?) and there was some turbulence. It was dark and stormy outside we had to do an emergency landing.

We went outside and some alien monsters were attacking us we had to fight them off. The natives there were brainwashed or fooled, because the aliens made themselves to seem like heroes protecting the island when they were actually killing off the population.


It seemed it was all a plan to get us to be fed to the aliens from the emergency landing even the air hosts were brainwashed and serving the aliens.

I tried to escaped to a plane on the island a few times but everytime they caught me and made me retreat. Eventually I got to the plane and when I ran through the doors I was in my house, once again I ran through the doors and was outside. I was being chased by the aliens.

I saw a British Gas van and ran in to the passenger seat. I saw one of my media teachers run out of my house too. I waited 3 seconds but thought forget it I wanna live so I drove away. I could feel the steering wheel and the cramped space of the van. I drove to a motorway and told myself I was lucid and "when I open my eyes I will be in a futuristic city".

When I opened my eyes I was there the surroundings where white and bright almost pristine clean. I then wanted to fly so my van turned into a bike and it had rockets on the back, I flew up and then the dream fades.

Side Notes

I'm sure it's a WILD as my mum told me to wake up but I went back to sleep.

[COLOR="silver"]This morning I actually got a lucid moment, so I would count that as a success and now I also know how I do it. So I learned something new today :) And this timer setup was with no doubt the best.[/COLOR]

[CENTER][ATTACH=CONFIG]2557[/ATTACH][/CENTER]
[COLOR="blue"]I dreamt that I was a smuf character and Gargamel was chasing me. I were on a graveyard and his cat was looking for me. I was hiding with the other smurfs in a plant, but Gargamal had hypnotised humans to look for us. So we were really scared. One of the smurfs started to run and he revealed where we was. So we had to run too.
I was chased by the cat and I were jumping longjump on the gravestones.[/COLOR]

[COLOR="silver"]I woke up to the first alarm, swtiched position and fell asleep.[/COLOR]

[CENTER][ATTACH=CONFIG]2558[/ATTACH][/CENTER]
[COLOR="blue"]I was in a car and we were running from something (not as a smurf this time). And I challenged to help a guy drive the car, who didn't had a driverslicense, so I had to use the double commando on the right side in the right seat. He wasn't a bad driver so I barely needed to help him, but it was a scary dream, because he drove fast![/COLOR]

[COLOR="silver"]I woke up again to the timer and now I felt so tired that I just closed my eyes and relaxed.[/COLOR]
[COLOR="lightblue"]I started to see my thoughts vividly and didn't even had to concentrate to make them appear. It was so vivid, I saw a guy and I heard him say "We need to run!"[/COLOR]
[COLOR="blue"]It was now a dream, and even though I didn't realised that I said "What! Not a chase again like my other 2 dreams..." "Common!" he yelled. Then I were doing le parkour through a city, it looked like Russia or something like that.[/COLOR]
[COLOR="red"]I stopped and realised that my thoughts were now so vivid that it must be a dream "Because I were in my bed before" I thought. I started to think on what I wanted to dream.
And in a blink the dream changed.

I was now standing in Gryffindoors door room, but it didn't looked anything like it, although I was convinced that it looked like that while in the dream. Then I went down to the great hall, by involuntary teleporting down there. I saw the sky in the sealing, but I got to foccused in the dream or something, because I lost my lucidity.[/COLOR][COLOR="blue"]I saw a skatingramp and Bam Magera, he said that it was his birthday and the whole school singed "Happy Birthday" to him. For some reason there was a stage that I got up on, and I started to play guitar songs like Green Day - TIme of your life, Oasis - Wonderwall. and Bam got a birthday present, a bulletproof vest... [/COLOR]

[COLOR="silver"]I know now that all I have to do to get a lucid dream with the timer method, is to close my eyes and be aware of what I see. So I have to learn to get more aware on the awakenings.
It's like I am getting so tired that it's almost impossible to stay awake and I start to dream immediatelly. I will see if this work tomorrow as well, even if it was a short lucid dream. I am going to try the looking at the hands stabilisation technique, because that's a way to just stand still and not get involved with the dream again.[/COLOR]

Non-Dream

I was at my Nanny’s house. There was a toddler/baby there that I was to look after. We had fun singing Fireflies by Owl City in the garage and playing on bikes and scooters in the driveway. But then it began to rain. The rain was torrential. My Nanny put the baby in a cot/box, but it began to fill with water and the baby began to drown. With little time to spare, I picked up the baby and held it upright, banging on its back so that it coughed up water. It was then that I was captured.

I was in some kind of large building/institute. There were many people my age. I was waiting in line for something that everybody wanted desperately, but I was towards the back of the line. I decided to hop out of line and go sit in a corner by myself. It was just my luck that the head of the institute called random people close to him up, because I was sitting on the edge of his office/platform. With the selected few, he decided to send us on a mission.

Aliens. Our mission was to investigate and befriend aliens. This went quite smoothly at first. My team and I continued along on foot and found a few aliens. Some of the team were given special upgrades such as wolverine claws or sticky gummy string that came out of their hands. But when we went on the boat to find a certain type of alien, it all went wrong. The aliens looked like red daleks with three heads. Not the robot daleks, the flesh on the inside. The aliens were in a red blimp in the sky. The girl with string powers tried to fly her string up, but it was too short. Somehow, she figured out how to stretch it, and wrapped her string around a tube above her from which she swung herself up like Tarzan would swing from a vine.

I ran. I jumped. I was going to escape these terrible aliens. I don’t know how I knew they were terrible, I just knew. Somehow, I was teleported to the place in the institute where they held the trouble makers/evil children. I sat next to a girl with wolverine claws. There were lots of aliens around me that we had already researched. I got up to go investigate. There was a passage way with an adult and a small army in neat rows. Somehow I knew that the terrible red aliens would give an electric shock and do something to them, so I yelled out. But they wouldn’t listen, so I ran. It was too late. I was shocked by the wave. It appeared to be electric yellow sparks buzzing around everybody and everything. However, the wave only caused me to keep repeating my previous actions, like a glitch. I figured out how to bypass it, and then fixed the girl with wolverine claws. It was quite a task managing not to get cut by her claws.

Time jumped. I was on the second level of the institute. My friend Amsie was bragging about what she could do in a dream. She was talking about going to the dream academy and air bending. ‘Pfft, I already know about that!’ I thought. Then she continued talking about finding the portal to the dream academy. That was what triggered me to become lucid. I quickly pinched my nose and found I could breathe in. My dream was becoming unstable so I rubbed my hands together which began to fix the problem. Racing down the stairs I held onto the cool metal of the stair railing, gaining awareness of my surroundings. I examined the person in front of me in detail, indulging myself in my surroundings. Forgetting my dream goals, I decided to fly. It was quite easy, but I had a nagging feeling like I was forgetting something. I decided then that I wanted to try something that I hadn’t succeeded with for ages. I went down the stairs and pictured my friend coming around the next corner. They did, but they ran away and I never caught their face. I kept chasing but they disappeared every time I caught a glimpse of them. I believe this made me lose my lucidity somewhat.

All were called to arms. Everybody was in the institute and grabbed their backpacks from the massive towers that held backpacks. We all jumped up to the third floor of the institute. I followed an boy, even though he was slow because his backpack was heavy. I didn’t take a backpack because I figured it was a dream and I wouldn’t need it. We ran along a metal grid towards something.

Side notes: This was the only night since discovering Dream Views that I did not attempt any lucid dream induction techniques. I recall briefly focusing on a dream recall mantra, but nothing else. Next time I will lay out in my mind very clearly what goals I wish to achieve in my next lucid dream. In relation to the friend who ran away, I have received advice from a few Dream Views members and believe that I will be able to handle the situation better next time.

I was in a dark room sitting on my bunk bed. I was talking on my computer to a mother on drugs with young kid. She was asking me for advice. She sent to my laptop a picture of a white, fluffy ragdoll cat sitting on the sand at the beach.

The scene changed and I was at small shop with James and Claire, my 9 year old brother and 13 year old sister. It was still night time. There were different teams of kids attacking me. Each wore different colours to signify what team they were in (white/black striped, pure black, ect.). There was lots of yelling and shouting, but I realised very quickly that they were just playing. I scrambled to hide in the kitchen area against the counter, but it was not a good hiding place. I was spotted instantly and shot by some kids. However, the bullets were not real and did not harm me.

The scene changed again. I was at some kind of strange airport on a runway. For unknown reasons, I grabbed a trailer that was on the runway and dragged it at an impossibly fast speed. I felt as if I was going faster than I have ever travelled in my life. But I couldn’t stop. Fear built up in my chest as I put my feet to the ground in attempt to slow myself. The trailer and I had not slowed in the slightest. All of a sudden, I swung the trailer around on its side with impossible strength. I had saved myself just in time.

The scene changed once more. I was about to enter a pool resort with my hockey team. My hockey coach told me that I had to have the first ice bath and gave me a bobby pin made out of white cotton to signify this (at my previous hockey tournament we had to take ice-baths after each game. I always dreaded these). My coach (Emma), said that I had to have the first ice bath because she noticed on the last day of the hockey tournament that I looked at her and then pretended I didn’t see her because I didn’t want an ice bath. When we entered the pool resort, I noticed that the whole ground was covered in pools of different sizes and shapes. However, all were the same light blue pool colour. They seemed to be mostly undercover because there were shade tents permanently strung up above the pool. There were a couple of ice baths floating in the pool area. They were very strange white buckets that seemed to already be filled with pool water because they were mostly submerged. I looked around, but when I looked at the ice bath I wanted to go in, there were suddenly many guys surrounding it. I wanted to be with my hockey team, so I looked around for a different ice bath. Sighting one near my team, I swam over to it and hopped in. I was quite surprised when it was not cold in the slightest. I realised that it had been in the sun and all the ice had melted and turned into warm water. It was almost like a spa. My hockey manager (Katrina) came along with a glass of red cordial. I let it rest in the pool water and the pool water filled the cup.

The scene changed again. I was at a Woolworths store (grocery store) and I entered through the side door near the back. In front of me there was a flour packet that was labelled strangely. For some reason, I knew in contained some kind of illegal drug so I opened it and tipped it out into the bin. Then I picked up a newspaper and placed it in a red Woolworths basket with the empty flour packet. Suddenly, a grouchy Woolworths employee came along and asked what I did. I confessed, thinking that I would be congratulated, but he gave me a piece of paper that meant I was to be fined $1. I didn’t pay it, instead I ran out of the shop.

The scene changed into some kind of starry room or theatre. I suddenly realised that I might be dreaming and I attempted to jump off the ground. However, the ground wouldn’t let me and instead it made me become heavier and I got a sinking feeling. It felt a little bit like trying to jump on a trampoline when somebody else is jumping in a different rhythm. My thoughts were somewhere along the lines of ‘oh I have to make sure I don’t lose lucidity and stay focused’, but I still got distracted easily.

The scene changed once more. I was in this huge U shaped area with two round sections on either side with a joining at the bottom. There were all these curtains and holes in the wall around. I knew that this was a bad place. The fear did not creep up on my slowly, instead it hit me instantly. There were these alien/evil tentacle things that were slowly braiding themselves into plaits from the holes in the wall. Somehow all the DCs around me and I had seen this dream or situation before and we knew that we had to find the right plait and pull it from the hole. But the plait we thought was correct was in fact, incorrect. It was a risk to pull the plaits because you didn’t know what would come out the other end. Although most of the plaits led to nothing, there were some that lead to not-so-nice things. But we didn’t realise this until later. It was also difficult to pull the plaits as they were heavy. But I was quite strong, sometimes pulling three at once. It was then that we realised that some plaits had very bad creatures at the end called Furies. They were very large witches/hags that came in different colours. I same a splotchy turquoise one and a deep pink one. Once we realised we were pulling a Fury, we stopped pulling and backed away. However, the Fury still inched slowly forward, and eventually it would be free of the curtain. We had to find the right plait before it was too late.

Side note: I suspect that this wasn't all one long, continuous dream. It was probably several dreams, but I wrote this in the morning when I woke up so I could not distinguish where one dream ended and the next began. I am quite impressed with my dream recall for this night. I am going to continue to copy and paste my entries from previous dreams until I catch up to the present.

I began to drift off to sleep one night, and i began to feel aware of my presence in two separate places. one was me sleeping on the bed, the other was me sitting on the edge of my bed. i felt completely in control of both, in a very calm state of mind. using the one sitting up, i leapt off my bed, and crouched down on the floor, pausing a moment to stabilize the dream. i made a sword materialize on my back, able to define every detail of it. my thought drifted to my baby brother for a moment, and i found myself outside a hotel room, it was snowing. i looked through the window, and saw my stepfather holding my brother, my mother on the bed with my other brothers. i felt a sense of dread as i realized i wasnt there. i realized this was my family without me. feeling endangered, i ducked around the corner, slipping and falling. i concentrated on my other consciousness, and woke up. this was a great step for me in lucid dreaming and controlling myself.

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

I think I woke up and entered another dream. I was in my town, in the local square. I think I was looking for someone who I could borrow some money from to buy a game. For some reason I saw... Spongebob and asked him if I could borrow some money. He joked and said he had no money, them he tried to hide his wallet (which was full of money) from me. He them gave me 50 reais (Brazil's currency) and said something that I can't remember right now. I think that at this point the dream skipped. I was at my school talking to a friend of mine and he told me I was dead. We walked around the school and he was explaining things to me. Apparently this was some kind of school where dead people go to. He said there was no way that I could come back to life. I asked him if he was sure and said yes. I them asked if he had asked that to God (or something like that). He went to the bathroom and I was waiting to him, when some bully appeared and started annoying my friend. I was angry and tryed kicking him but the kick went pretty slow and basically had no effect. He laughed and went away. I tried firing a kamehameha at him from afar but missed by a few inches. I guess that scared him off tough. I told my friend that I managed to fire a kamehameha and he was impressed. I tryed firing a kamehameha from my mouth (I'ma firing my lazor style) but ran out of oxygen and failed.
Shortly after that I woke up and went to sleep again.
This time I was only a spectator. I was watching some kind of dog race. I remember that they were choosing a dog to chase the bunny or something like that. I also remember that this dog had to pick up some kind of diploma or something like that. That's about all I can remember from that night.
I forgot to hunt Blue because I wasn't very aware on that dream, but at least I completed one of my dream goals-firing a Kamehameha! My next dream goal is finding Blue.

Well I couldn't get to sleep at all. I went to bed fairly early, but tosses and turned for hours. It was 1:30 (2 and a half hours later) that I guess I fell asleep.
No dreams during that time, I woke up by my default body clock at 5 for my WBTB. I wasn't feeling up to it so I just lay in bed for that hour.

I then tosses and turned for another hour, I just couldn't get to sleep, I wasn't tired at all but I was feeling weak.
Eventually I did lie still and close my eyes, focus my breathing and slipped into a dream

******
I was in my back garden, on the sort of barbecue area we have set up. A few of my classmates were there with me, I think we were discussing some homework we had.
Then my mother handed me a big loaf of bread through the window of our house. When I got a hold of it I got lucid and immediately identified this. I moved around swiftly touching the table and stamping my feet, trying to ground myself. I saw a DC and touched their arm, and when I did they changed into someone I actually knew. I could feel vibrations throughout and my vision was quite clear, except I was in a total rush to try to stabilize, as my other "lucids" have been short and sharp, with no time to stabilize. This seems to have been my downfall as I just lost it a little while after.

******

I was on my side in bed, and I looked at my clock, I had been dreaming for 15 minutes, it seemed like a brief pause and then 15 seconds of dreaming. I lay still again, repeated, and I slipped into another dream.

******
This time I was in a super market, quite like my local one, except the stock on sale and the colours were wrong. I again tried to quickly stabilize by doing everything that came to mind. This included-
Running up to a DC and climbing up them to get up onto a shelf, then reaching up to the ceiling panels and removing one, then climbing up into it
I remember not knowing what to expect, and when I got up there I was looking at some people in a group circle, like rehab or an AA meeting. It looked as bland as the shop did. I then just lost it there

******

Sleep for an hour, then I had to get up for school.
I'm counting the first as a lucid WILD, but not the second, as the second one had less control and was only clinging onto the back end of the 1st one. I'm happy I managed it but not so happy that it happened not as I intended.

So guys I haven't been lucid in months..but i decided to do reality checks again and to make an effort be lucid in my dreams again 2 days ago..so just a couple mins ago i had a lucid dream..at first i wasn't lucid and i was stuck in some kind of story..i kinda forgot wat it was about but wen i found that i was dreaming by looking at the clock and it was changing..and my hands looked the same but felt weird i knew i was dreaming..once i knew i was dreaming i touched everything the wall everything..it all felt soo real and looked so real and cleare once i started focusing in on the dream while keeping my lucidity..i started thinking hmmm wat should i do now that im lucid? so i had an idea i thought about my boyfriend VJ and he suddenly appeared sitting in front of a computer in my house i run up to him and hug him and tell him this is a dream (he is also lucid in dreams at times) so then i go outside with him and start flying and i was trying to teach him how to fly but he somehow couldn't do it yet..so then he suddenly fades away as im flying flying and stepping on the roof of buildings etc..i suddenly think hmm it's a long time i haven'e seen nate AKA Waking Nomad since in real waking life i moved back to New Jersey from Hawaii..so then i thought where are you nate? and then i suddenly saw him with a group of people..I saw Nate smoking with a bong..so then I walked up to their group and called out "Nate!" he stood up and looked at me..i couldn't tell if he didn't recognize me or he didn't remember me..either way i somehow took a hat off and said it's me Jo Anna..he then remembered who i was and said this: "What are you doing here? You're not supposed to be here unless you're a 2.0 dreamer" I don't know wat that meant..but in the dream i asked "How do i become a 2.0 dreamer then?" Then a girl in the group said: "You have to read this book" She pointed to some kind of history book it looked to me..and kind of thick..Every time I would look at the words/numbers it would change..I asked "How am I going to read this book in a dream?" I got the sense I have to read that book in waking life..im not sure..but i don't remember the full title of the book..The girl in the group was writing the title down for me on a piece of paper..I couldn't understand some of her writing since it was sloppy..i can't believe someone had more bad penmanship than me i didn't think it was possible..but anyways since i couldn't quite see clearlr of her writing i teleported myself somekind of pen a blu pen..i looked at the space on the table next to me..looked away imagining there's a pen there..and sure enough i got wat i wanted just by imagining it's there wen it wasn't there in the beginning..i got the pen and started writing the title on the piece of paper next to where the girl was writing the title as well..she gave me a grin wen i got myself a pen for some reason..lol..but anyways i was trying to copy the title of the book but every time i accidentally look away some of the letters would change..all I remember is one word to the title started with an "S" and there were a lot of U's H's and T's in the word that started with an "S"..I just don't remember the title..I hope WakingNomad or whoever reads this to help me decipher what he meant by 2.0 dreamer and wat kind of book..lol

I am Ice skationg without any skates, I immedietely stop and realize that its a dream. I pinch myself and fly through the roof, I decided to make a future list of the events in my dream.
Step 1.) Fly
Step 2.) Do Drugs
Step 3.) Snowboard
So I am flying around and having an awesome time, so I decide to move on to step 2, I fly to a valley to search for psychadelic mushrooms. I am weaving through a creek searching diligently But my mind cannot remember any more ....

I had a dream earlier that night about a long journey up a mountain, So We arrive late at a old house. I am not sure where it is or why we are there but my parents tell me to wait for them to return, I wait for a day and decide to go after them. I am trotting up the mountain finding full cancer sticks and smokin em. I eventually giveup and wait near a creek. They never came back...
